Built the plate carrier and belt with training and emergency situations in mind, I know black is out of fashion at the moment, but I live in a fairly developed area. In the hopefully unlikely event of me needing to use this gear; Its not like I’m gonna ghost into the woods when I’m worried about defending my family and property. Not disparaging people who love their cammies, but I just don’t think it would be that beneficial to my situation. Might switch to a Coyote Tan or Foliage Green eventually.

*not gonna be lugging around 3 guns in any foreseeable situation, was cleaning my KSG and my AR so they both made it into the shot.

Yes there are far better rigs than that, and yes I even own that one for a loaner for when someone forgets there’s, or doesn’t have one.

Or if you really want to go all out! This is a plate carrier from Warrior Assault Systems, 6 mags etc, etc.
I have many more setups but this will …

My setup as of 2018, still some things that I want to change, but the Spiritus Systems LV-119 is very nice. I hike and run with the carrier slicked down 2 to 3 times a week. Very stable and comfortable at least for my body type (pretty average height and build). NAR IFAK in the sack pouch under the carrier and supplemental CAT tourniquets on my beltline and on body.

So I have 360 rounds loaded, spare mag for my side arm, blade, smoke, dump bag, med kit, all able to go over heavy clothing. It is 11° F today… so… clothing… and some spare… hahahhahaa
Ammo is actually not 360, though it is with my rifle. I load my mags to 28 / 29 usually staggered with green tip and HP
